St George Cemetery Records

St George Cemetery Records

I wonder if anyone know where the best place to get information on burials in the St George Cemetery is? I've tried calling the cemetery itself several times, leaving a message each time, and no return calls.

Does anyone know how else I could confirm burials and get a map of where they're at? I plan to be visiting that area in mid July.

The cemetary caretaker has been having a number of health issues lately. If you actually go to the cemetary, while he is there, he can help you find whatever you need. He's very helpful. The problem is figuring out when he's there or not. You might contact St. Elizabeth Parish (262-657-1156) about his availability, since they are the Catholic parish connected to the cemetery now.

Yes, the director of the cemetery has been ill. Try this number 262-914-1353.

You can go to the cemetery between 8am and 3pm and the head groundskeeper will try to help you. He may recognize the names on some of the stones you're looking for, but official maps and requests usually come from the director. As already suggested, I would let the church/rectory office (262-657-6875)know your calls are not being returned if the above number doesn't help you reach someone.

Thanks for all the comments. Since my posting, I have actually made contact with someone. However, I didn't have much luck.

The person I spoke with said the best thing to do would to make an appointment with the director to see if they could help. It's not easy to do that when I'm conming on a weekend. They didn't have a way of providing maps or even confirming names are in the cemetery. I also stated that I was doing family history and had a few other names I was wondering about. They said they have no information useful for family history.

I'm still going to try and get there Friday before 3:00. I have an general idea of where a few family members are at, but it doesn't sound like I'll be able to answer my other questions.

Hi:Did you ever have any success obtaining records information from the St. George cemetery? I have just discovered that my paternal great grandparents and great great grandparents are buried there. Thanks, Don Hauff/California
